| Poetry for Daphne
In Loving Memory of Daphne Kristel Sulk
May 1, 1982 - November 1997
She came into our world and stayed for awhile.
She was an angel whose existence brightened our lives.
We were blessed having known her.
We miss her dearly and treasure the time she spent with us.
She was taken away from us
before it was time for her to leave.
Then, now, and Always - We love you Daphi
Daphne Kristel Sulk
"Daphi"
My Daphne
She was a source of hope and pride,
Of tender feelings deep inside,
And countless joys right from the very start.
She taught me many special things,
Like how much fun a daughter brings,
And how much love can fill a parent�s heart.
She grew up all at once it seemed,
As beautifully as I had dreamed,
So full of life and bright dreams of her own.
And through it all, her gifts of sharing,
Touching lives, and truly caring,
Have meant much more than she had ever known.
Now she�s gone, my life filled with sorrow,
Memories are all I have left for tomorrow.
Words alone can�t express all she meant to me.
The days are long, filled with grief,
But still I hold on to one belief,
That you will also remember, as it was meant to be,
My precious daughter, My Daphne.
To My Daughter
To my daughter, my little one
Who outshone the light from the sun
She blessed my days, each and everyone
As I watched her grow to be
The young lady I saw before me
I hoped and prayed for her dreams to occur
I wished a world of happiness for her.
Someday I thought she would go out on her own
She wouldn�t need me as much when she was grown
Wherever life took her, I hoped she would know
That my love would be with her wherever she would go.
Dedicated to Daphne
I�ll Be Missing You
It�s kind of hard with you not around
Know you�re in heaven smiling down
Watching us while we pray for you
Everyday, we pray for you
Til� the day we meet again
In my heart is where I�ll keep you friend
Memories give me the strength I need to proceed
The strength I need to believe.
Every step I take, every move I make
Every single day, every night I pray
I�ll be missing you
Thinking of the day, when you went away
What a life to take, what a bond to break
I�ll be missing you

Just remember in the winter
Far beneath the bitter snow
Lies a seed that with the sun�s love
In the spring becomes the rose.
